Profile:
Widely reknowned and often remembered for his dour and dogged
determination, Asanka Gurusinha has proven to be as important to
Sri Lanka's One Day XI as he is to their Test team. The
highly-experienced left hand batsman has made the problematic
number 3 position his own. He lends to the team a solidity which
is essential against a framework of dashing stroke players, but
to suggest that he is a 'strokeless wonder' as some have done is
to do him a grave injustice. His fluent driving on both sides of
the wicket is particularly notable, and once set he rarely fails
to provide Sri Lanka with a solid foundation, which he often
builds upon himself. Gurusinha is also a more than useful medium
pace swing bowler, and given the right conditions his crafty
in-dippers are not easy for opposing batsmen to handle.
